Overview

Digest Journal of Nanomaterials and Biostructures (DJNB) is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal. The journal covers a wide range of topics related to nanoscale materials, including their composition, structure, preparation, characterization, properties, functional regulation, and applications. The journal also covers research on biostructures closely related to nanomaterials, including representative nanoscale structural features in biological systems, as well as the roles of these structures in nanomaterial design, fabrication approaches, structural regulation, and the understanding of material properties. The article types accepted by DJNB include Original Research articles, Reviews, Systematic Reviews, Editorials, and Commentaries. The journal provides a platform for exchange among teachers, scientists, and engineering and technical staff in the fields of materials science, nanoscience, biomaterials, chemistry, physics, engineering, and related interdisciplinary fields.
